Hello, I’m Melanie Morrill the owner and acupuncturist of Accessible Acupuncture and I am an ally.
Inclusion is incredibly important to me and I want to share some of the ways I have made Accessible Acupuncture inclusive.
I have a focus on inclusion and accessibility because acupuncture is for everyone.
Finding and receiving quality healthcare shouldn’t be challenging.
My intake form asks about gender and sex, your preferred name, it uses gender-neutral language around uterus and prostate health, and it has a check box if you wish to identify yourself as LGBTQIA2S+.
If you have recommendations on how I can make Accessible Acupuncture more inclusive or accessible I would love to hear them at your next appointment or via email.
Part of being an ally is listening to peoples’ lived experiences and supporting them the way they want to be supported.
